Abstract This report describes the procedures for using the AMANDA model in acceleration response studies. It includes processing of acceleration time-history data for inputting the data into AMANDA and applying AMANDA, which predicts head, chest and pelvis acceleration, in order to predict injury. The ORCA modeling system is a computer software package that provides a comprehensive standardized casualty assessment methodology associated with weapon-induced injuries. It also includes recommended improvements to enhance AMANDA model capabilities within the ORCA modeling system. Sets of acceleration time-history data from a live-fire test are included as an example in order to enhance the clarity of the described procedure.
